The Department of Defense seeks a contractor for a firm-fixed-price contract to perform paint inspection services at the Tooele Army Depot in Utah. The primary objective is to ensure the quality of paint applications on a minimum of 400 carbon steel containers, requiring blast cleaning and specific primer and topcoat layers.
The successful contractor will be responsible for daily inspections and documentation of the painting process, including surface preparation, and will employ a NACE-certified Coating Inspector to verify paint layer thickness and overall appearance. They must adhere to SSPC and NACE standards, use specialized equipment, and access the site with proper security clearances.
This opportunity is a Total Small Business Set-Aside, with a 12-month base contract period. Contractors must provide detailed pricing information and are encouraged to visit the site prior to submitting their proposals by the deadline on June 24, 2024. The evaluation process will consider the contractor's ability to meet these requirements and their proposed pricing.
All necessary travel and onsite equipment will be provided by the contractor, who should anticipate up to 25 trips to the Depot, subject to interruptions due to materials, equipment, or weather. The contracting office is W6QK ACC-RI, with contacts Megan Frost and Rebecca Meeke available for inquiries.
The Army Contracting Command also refers to a Wage Determination document outlining minimum wages for various occupations in Utah. This is to ensure compliance with the Service Contract Act, which sets hourly rates contractors must adhere to. Key dates, occupation types, and relevant standards are included in this document.
